Albert 304 Posted March 24, 2019 (edited) Are Scunny the only championship team not to have team kevlars?... The pics I've seen from Sheffield's and Redcars p&p would suggest not..? Edited March 24, 2019 by Albert 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

scorpion76 1 Posted March 24, 2019 At about £500 a suit that's £3500 at start of season and factor in 2-3 changes in season (injuries and loss of form) it is a lot of money to lay out when you can get a set of race bibs for about £350 quid. I much prefer things as they are at scunny as you can spot the riders easier on track with individual colours. Ipswich have taken it to the next level with team bike covers and it must be very hard to spot who is who for there fans now. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But I think we have to see what clubs can afford, and for some the race suits could be an unnecessary expense. The thing that I find fascinating is Jason Garrity's bike and kevlars the name Sheffield Window Centre features heavily, Sheffield's long term team sponsors.

lucifer sam 3,953 Posted March 24, 2019 Wonder if we should actually start a 2020 thread for this http://www.scunthorpe-speedway.com/?p=9607 That's what you call forward planning! 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Three last places and a win against Ipswich? I know he rode well today, but that form to me, isn't very consistent... At least Josh is consistently average... Both as bad/good as eachother I think Good to see Jordan Palin with a team place for next season (Already)... Got him in my NL fantasy team, so hope he has a good year Edited March 24, 2019 by Dandelion Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
